TUSC3 blocking peptide
TUSC3 Peptide - N-terminal region
Target Description: This gene is a candidate tumor suppressor gene. It is located within a homozygously deleted region of a metastatic prostate cancer. The gene is expressed in most nonlymphoid human tissues including prostate, lung, liver, and colon. Expression was also detected in many epithelial tumor cell lines. Two transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a protein that has been associated with several biological functions including cellular magnesium uptake, protein glycosylation and embryonic development. This protein localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum and acts as a component of the oligosaccharyl transferase complex which is responsible for N-linked protein glycosylation. This gene is a candidate tumor suppressor gene. Homozygous mutations in this gene are associated with autosomal recessive nonsyndromic mental retardation-7 and in the proliferation and invasiveness of several cancers including metastatic pancreatic cancer, ovarian cancer and glioblastoma multiform.

Uniprot Description
TUSC3: Magnesium transporter. May be involved in N- glycosylation through its association with N-oligosaccharyl transferase. Defects in TUSC3 are the cause of mental retardation autosomal recessive type 7 (MRT7); also known as mental retardation non-syndromic autosomal recessive 7. Mental retardation is characterized by significantly sub-average general intellectual functioning associated with impairments in adaptative behavior and manifested during the developmental period. Non- syndromic mental retardation patients do not manifest other clinical signs. Belongs to the OST3/OST6 family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.
